DESCRIPTION:We focus so much on the next great exploit\, when have we looke
 d back to see where we come from?  Let me take you on a journey back throu
 gh time\, to the first 'hack' ever pulled off. Then\, wander with me as we
  trace the history of our storied profession\, from thousands of years ago
 \, all the way to the modern day.\n\n\nI choose to define hacking as "subv
 erting the rules of a system\, in order to force the system to behave in a
  manner not intended by its creator". This\, to me at least\, is the hacke
 r mindset - a burning curiosity to make things behave in a way we are told
  they should not be able to. It is armed with this definition\, that I exp
 lore the history of hacking\, going back through the ages\, addressing the
  incident in 1903 (from which we get the title of this talk)\, or even to 
 1834\, when the first real 'cyber attack' was pulled off. We go back even 
 earlier than this\, observing how the techniques we use today have their r
 oots in the (mis)behaviour of ancient civilisations.\n\nI hope we can lear
 n from the past\, to help us shape the future of our great industry. Or\, 
 at the very least\, we can pay homage to the hackers that came before us\,
  as they laid the groundwork for what we all get to do today.

DESCRIPTION:*What is JavaScript? Who is a HTML and what are they doing in m
 y browser?* If you ask these sort of questions - this is the workshop for 
 you. You may have heard of Cross-Site Scripting in passing\, you may not h
 ave\, but after this you will understand what it is\, what you can do with
  it\, and be well on your way to finding it in simpler web apps.\n\nCross-
 Site Scripting (XSS for short) is one of the fundamental vulnerabilities a
 ll junior AppSec professions need to have a solid grasp of. Understanding 
 why XSS is an issue\, how it is introduced into applications\, and ultimat
 ely how to begin finding it is a vital step on anyones AppSec journey.\n\n
 We will start with a basic overview of what a website is made up of (HTML/
 JS/CSS)\, then the difference between dynamic and static pages\, and onto 
 how user-supplied content ends up in pages. We then move onto exploring ho
 w we might provide malicious content\, exploring what we used to demonstra
 te execution (`alert(1)`) . This workshop is supported by custom labs to r
 einforce the learning.\n\nWhilst this is aimed at complete beginners\, by 
 the end of the two hours you should have a solid understanding of what XSS
  is\, but more importantly *why* it ends up in applications. This depth of
  understanding will help any person within the AppSec field.\n\nThis is a 
 workshop aimed at folks brand new to web security\, or people wanting to g
 et into AppSec in the future.
